Each Astronomy Adventure begins with a short tour of the constellations to
familiarize you with the night sky.  Due to our location in the Caribbean, you
will see them in a whole new way, including some that never even rise above
the horizon further north.  Once you know where you are looking, the adventure 
continues as Astronomer Kary Williams guides you to individual objects with the 
Largest Telescope in the Caribbean.
 
       
 
 
 
Whether scanning the 3-dimensional surface of the Moon or pulling in light from
a galaxy that began it's journey millions of years ago, your Astronomy Adventure
is sure to be a highlight of your stay in the Caribbean.
 
 
 
Largest Telescope in the Caribbean, designed and built by Kary Williams
Specifications:
Clear Aperture:          18" (Diameter)
Type:                         Newtonian 18" f5 Reflector
Height:                       8 feet
Limiting Magnitude:    16
Resolution:                 .277 Arc Seconds
Power:                        70 to 1000
The scope, which you will be using, is no small scope.  At 18 inches, it is larger 
than the scopes to which most major universities have access, and the views you 
will experience are nothing short of amazing.  This scope is powerful enough to 
bring the wonders of the Universe up close.  Imagine seeing the Moon, Planets, 
Star Clusters, Gaseous Nebulae and Galaxies so close, you can almost touch them.
